Contact is taking a break after 25 years of bringing you news of Tibet and Tibetan issues. We are celebrating our 25 years by bringing you the story of Contact and the people who have made it happen, and our archive is still there for you to access at any time, and below you can read the story of Contact, how it came into being and the wonderful reflections of the people who have made it happen over the years.
When and how Contact will re-emerge and evolve will be determined by those who become involved.
A second landslide has hit the Drichu River near Chamdo city in Tibet, damaging more than 1,000 houses and a hydro power station nearby. 8,300 people have been relocated and reports say that around 24,600 residents in 15 counties have been affected along the 300 kilometres (186 miles) downstream. Tibet advocacy groups are saying the landslides are caused by inappropriate Chinese development in the area.
